Come 2027, apc must be kicked out from the centre.

They have shown that they are more concerned in propaganda and optics than actual governance.

Dreal1247:
Obi is the greatest nightmare of your people. Unfortunately, the truth will always prevail over propaganda.

Please, be the judge with the information below

Soludo made a statement which some of us have to correct him during President Tinubu’s visit..

“The last time a president visited for a commissioning was in 2012 for a brewery”
- Gov. Chukwuma Soludo

The statement is viewed as an attempt to attack Obi who Governor Soludo has never shy away from attacking at every opportunity right from 2023 Presidential election campaign.

Now let me set the record straight as a citizen of the state who have been following events in our state for years.

In 2012, President Jonathan visited Anambra State and commissioned:
(1) Inaugurate Orient Petroleum Oil.

(2) SabMiller Brewery

(3) Orange Drugs Company

(4) Krisoral Company

(5) Onitsha Inland Port

(6) 8 lanes Onitsha Head Bridge Enugu Onitsha expressway to Umunya with new parts bridge Nkpor.
Among others

Above listed are some of the triggers to economic growth of the state. I therefore state that the very statement from Soludo was demarketing of the state.

In 2010, President Jonathan visited Anambra State and commissioned:

(1) Anambra State University Teaching Hospital.

(2) Anambra State Secretariat

(3) Kenneth Dike Library

(4) Anambra State Emergency Management Complex

(5) Parental Drugs Factory of Juhel Pharmaceutical Industries

(6) so So many roads example : Zik’s Avenue Awka to Nkpor road and Bridges.

(7) the commissioning of the National Agency for Food, Drug, Administration and Control, NAFDAC’s upgraded ultra modern area quality control laboratory, at Agulu, Anambra State and many other projects.

( the commissioning of the assembly plant of the first indigenous Nigerian auto manufacturing company in Nigeria, Innoson Motor Manufacturing in Nnewi, Anambra State.

President Obasanjo had earlier visited during Peter Obi era in 2006/2007.
Projects Commissioned by President Olusegun Obasanjo are as follows:

(1) Onitsha Business Park: A strategic initiative aimed at boosting commerce and industry in the region.

(2) Revenue House in Awka: Established to improve the state's revenue collection processes.

(3) Anambra State Fire Service Headquarters in Awka: Built to enhance emergency response capabilities.

(4) Flagging off of Awka-Nibo-Nise-Enugwu Ukwu ring road

So it was sad to read Soludo said that what he said.
I have being trying to read what my governor marketed to the visiting President or what he used the opportunity to market as the chief salesman of the state by virtue of his position as the governor, but I am so disappointed with his statement which did not add any value to the state.

Nigerians sha if you haven't build one airport or flyover or build new secretariat or one coastal highway you haven't achieved anything

IGBOPROMISE1:
Quit being a smartass! So you can be indebted to your bank yet still have savings? Name the state or federal gov’t that didn’t inherit the debts and liabilities of the outgoing gov’t! And are you implying that, assuming that figure is correct, that it was Peter Obi that incurred all the debt and none was from gov’ts before his own?

Pak n terrorism b like beans n bread, nothing new there

PresidObi:
If it were to happen in Owerri or Enugu that an aeroplane hit a fowl, Enugu and Owerri, even Awka and Asaba airports will be closed for a year while they renovate the airport to stop that, all the poultry in Eastern Nigeria will be closed and any market selling chickens will be demolished immediately.

The only thing keeping Nigeria together is that politics of hate.

papyjaypaul:
What's the meaning of this?

Take it, grab it and run away with it? Common OP! [quote author=Zulu11zulu post=135336202]

Zulu11zulu:
If obi come out fully to campaign for his political party he will take over anambra but the man have some respect for ojukwu, he will not like to do that if you look at his body language during elections you will see he is not serious.

The legacy of ojukwu will not die for now Apga will still remain the party to rul anambra if not I don't think soludo will come back.

The only reason soludo is coming back is not because hebis working or because he is popular he is coming back because of apga.

Obi understand is he take anambra to another political party at the end of the if he no more interested in politics he will see as someone who betrayed our leader ojukwu and his name will be in bad books of ndi anambra.

Voters do not determine election winner, those that count the votes and judiciary do

In all honesty, Nigerians revolted, look at end Sars.....what was the result. People died for nothing, many were imprisoned and life went on. So people told themselves, Nigeria was not worth dying for
